BEE CUP
We’re thrilled to announce an exciting project dedicated to making a positive impact on our environment and community. Collaborating with The University of Manchester, our aim is to drastically reduce the use of disposable coffee cups within the hospitality industry. Why focus on disposable coffee cups? The University currently uses around 300,000 disposable cups a year, each of these cups requires 0.58 litres of water to produce and leaves a carbon footprint equivalent to up to 60.9 grams of co2, causing a huge environmental impact. This reusable cup scheme will therefore be vital in improving the sustainability of UOM, with hopes of expanding it citywide in years to come. This exciting project will promote this positive message through a visual installation. This outdoor structure will serves as a catalyst to kick-start a campaign, aiming to highlight the issue, foster discussion, change behaviour, and ultimately, significantly reduce the number of disposable cups used.
